LOTD #4: Rails running on GlassFish @ LinkedIn

Using Warbler, we
successfully wrapped our Rails applications into WAR files and deployed
on Glassfish (we’ll probably write a more detailed tutorial of this at
a future date). A WAR file is completely self contained application
that can be deployed simply by copying to an autodeploy directory. No
more Apache/Nginx reverse proxy, no more Capistrano, no more installing
gems on a production container, no more of any of that madness. This
was a huge win, and we broke out the champagne bottles.
